Reverse Dome
Similar to a dish piston, the goal of a Reverse Dome piston is to lower the compression ratio of your engine, making them great for boosted (supercharged, turbocharged) applications. They are designed in such a way as to match the profile and shape of most standard and aftermarket cylinder heads. more info
Flat Top
Flat top pistons are very similar in nature to stock pistons, running at medium compression ratios. Consequently, they work great in many applications and performance levels. Valve reliefs are designed with appropriate clearance to fit most types of standard and aftermarket heads. more info
Solid Dome Top
A Solid Dome top piston will effectively raise an engine's compression ratio, making them the ideal type of piston for medium to higher performance engines that may be using power adders (such as nitrous). Dome Top pistons range from medium to high compression ratios. more info
Hollow Dome Top
Hollow Dome pistons are designed specifically for applications where race fuel and nitrous are the norm. They are typically used to make motors with high compression ratios and high performance combinations only. more info
